Title:: [[The Cartographers]] Authors:: [[Peng Shepherd]] Tags:: #fiction #cartography #maps Read:: [[2022-11-16]] ## Editions - Edition:: William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollinsPublishers, First Edition, 2022 - Original Copyright:: 2022 - Pages:: 400 ## Annotations fun fact: for the longest time I wanted to be a cartographer when I grew up. I’ve loved maps for as long as I can remember, and have a box of atlases I made packed away somewhere. I’ve always loved how different maps can share a subject but be endlessly unique.  It’s clear that Peng Shepherd loves maps, too, and that makes this book enjoyable to read.  Approach it like getting into a warm bath. Get in and let go, and just enjoy it (and roll with some of the predictable plot-twists). The story is worth it.  Also, a fascinating true story underlying the fiction, but no spoilers.
